This was created this morning for what happened


Work has being a bit crazy, more so than ever. No one wants to go to other stores because it is expensive and we are cheaper. More work hours were given, meaning less free time... At first I was a little mad but continued on being my positive self^^ Then the crazy holiday rushes happened and we were swamped with floods of shoppers. Cashiers called out, people either quit or were fired. But I kept going. My brother and I were the best of the best. We kept our cool, were faster to checkout, and friendly. More hours were given to us a LOT! I was sick of it, could not stand it but remained positive... It had snowed recently and I was happy to see it thinking not only was it beautiful to see, but because people would stop shopping... it did not stop them. Yesterday, we drove out through the wind and snow at 6 am. Not a lot of workers showed up or shoppers, but we still opened. Slowly it grow, shoppers, even though there were not a lot, still came it the store. Finally, the day was done and we went home to relax. I hoped it was going to ice over and I would call out the next day. The morning came... and the sun was out. We shoveled the snow, got the ice off the cars, and made the paths for the vehicles to get out. Quickly went inside to get some breakfast... then it happened

My thoughts... my emotions... More and more appeared, until I broke...

A glass cup fell... I cried, I was angry, I was sad, I was confused. The Work, the People, the Stress had finally gotten to me. And I cried.

Our mother hugged me and said I should call out and relax, if I am over worked then I need to stop, breath, and relax.

I called out and relaxed

~This is my first vent and breakdown, Work has been ridiculous with the managers getting us LONG hours every single time. And I guess it would have happened eventually. I feel better now opening up~
